-It’s not what was sold to me, what was told to me
-Idealized discipline and unlimited opportunity -But really -It’s a well-oiled hypocrisy, a well-defined bureaucracy -Lead by too many spot lights who don’t care -No individual or resource is spared -A hand shake here and a hand wave there -Politics before competence -Selective policies before logical equality -Embracing mediocrity instead of celebrating creativity -A directive here and a delegation there -No consequence for laziness -Save for the broken backs of those who never quit -Notional oversight over methodical development -Shit in and shit out -Yet so shocked when the mission doesn’t work out -Readiness in personnel, equipment, and training -Yet we don’t hold all to equal accountability -Yet we don’t emphasize responsibility to maintain property -Yet we don’t provide deliberate time to resource and train properly -As we downsize, issues continue to climb -The same tired souls tow the line -From point A to point B -Sacrifices they decline to see -But a self-validation is guaranteed -Hunger for esprit de corps -Pray for another door -Salute to a better day -Change be the right of way |
